Seed Painting: A Process Art Activity for Preschool and Toddlers
Seed Painting
Mixing seeds right into the paint,
gives an interesting and new texture that is fun to experiment with.
This is an activity that requires very few inexpensive supplies
to do. It is also a very open ended process art activity: just point the child in the direction of the paint and brush and let them go!
All you need is:
- a few different colors of washable paint
- small cups to hold the paint
- several different kinds of small seeds (such as carrot or marigold)
- paintbrushes (one for each color)
- paper or card stock
Pour each color of paint (maybe two
tablespoons?) into its own cup. Add a couple of pinches of seeds to
each color of paint and stir it in with a paintbrush.
Place the paint mixtures and paper in a
comfortable place where your child can create. As Little M. painted
she talked about plants growing out of her painting, which was super
interesting. We did this twice last week because Little M. had so
much fun!
